Nuclear envelope w/ pores.plant&animal
nucleus
|
A double membrane that surrounds and contains nuclear material. Nuclear pores allowmaterials to leave the nucleus into the cytoplasm of the cell.
|
NucleolusBoth .Nucleus
|
.Made up of chromatin. It assembles ribosomes.
|
Chromosome/ ChromatinBoth Nucleus
|
Store genetic information (DNA). Chromatin is DNA wound around protein spools, while chromosomes are tightly coiled chromatin during cell division.
|
Mitochondria
“Powerhouse”
BothCytoplasm
|
Double-membrane organelle... the site of cellular respiration in the cell. (cellular respiration breaks down glucose to release energy)
|
•Endoplasmic Reticulum
“Internal transport system”
Both .Cytoplasm
|
Transports material throughout cell.ser manufactures lipids/breaks down toxic substances.RER. important making of proteins due to ribosomes.
|
•Golgi apparatus
“Packaging Plant”
|
Both Cytoplasm.Made up of flattened membrane sacs. Modifies and packages proteins and other substance.
|
Chloroplast
|
Plants.Cytoplasm.(contains chlorophyll), .Site of photosynthesis in a plant cell. 1st of 3 plastids.
|
Amyloplast/ Leucoplast
|
Plants.Cytoplasm.2nd of 3 types of plastids found in plant cells. They store amylose (starch).
|
Chromoplast
|
Plants.Cytoplasm.3rd of 3 types of plastids, it stores accessory pigments in plant cells.
|
Vacuoles/Vesicles
|
Both .Cytoplasm.Vacuoles/vesicles are storage compartments of the cell. They can contain food, proteins, waste…etc…
|
Lysosomes
|
Animal.Cytoplasm.Produced by the Golgi apparatus, contain digestive enzymes used to breakdown food or worn out cell parts.
|
Microtubules/ Microfilaments
|
Both .Cytoplasm.Protein fibers that make up the cytoskeleton.Microtubules are hollow tubes, while microfilaments are more thread-like.
|
Centrioles
|
Animal.Cytoplasm.Made up of 9 groups of 3 microtubules. They produce the spindle fibers that separate chromosomes during cell division.
|
Cell Wall
|
Plant.Boundary.Made up of proteins and cellulose, it provides support and protection to a plant cell. It gives the cell its shape..
|
Plasma Membrane
|
Both.Boundary.Made up of a bilayer of phospholipids with proteins embedded. Maintains homeostasis by regulating what enters and leaves the cell.
